Burnt Plug Wire

[bailey_57]

i used to burn plug wires like a mother but my buddy recommended these insulators that go around the plug wire. believe it or not i bought them off the shelf at autozone. they are like 40 bucks. worth it after you smoke a couple sets of wires.

i can tell you right now just by looking at those pics its those headers.the dont come out of the flange far enough before they bend.they just bend out.my bbk's come out about 2" then bend.
looks like you have room for a wider header too.

BBK for what combo? The new plug boots clear, but didnt fix the running issue.

these are 351 for a fox but you can get a header for your car that is not so close to the heads like that.jba makes a nice mid header or long tube for your year.those headers must be for the stock heads,i know alot of fox owners have that problem when they put a aftermarket header on a stock head.thers alot of companies that make off the shelf headers for your car that will fit and are not so close to the head.mustangs unlimited has a complete catologe on your body style.edelbrock makes headers for it too.

I may have to switch, I just didn't wanna give up my full length headers.

you dont have to use shorty headers that was just an example.lol these are tri y headers from mustangs unlimited.but theres so many companies that make great headers.i would really look into it,those ones you have are too tight for your heads. the ones in my car are full length.

Are you aware that I have an AOD? I have never found a Full Length header for the AOD in a 65.
